The state-of-the-art new facility in Norwalk reflects West Central's distinct mission for the company's five-decade history: to combine modern technology years of hands-on farming and produce experience. The 200,000-square-foot distribution center includes the latest in computerized communications as well as other technologies to ensure prompt delivery 24 hours a day of the finest, freshest produce to the company's buyers throughout Southern California.
